The Robinsons is a British comedy television series that debuted on BBC Two on 5 May 2005. The show's central character is a divorced reinsurance actuary, Ed Robinson (played by Martin Freeman), who realises that reinsurance is not his passion and decides to rethink his life. The series is written and directed by Mark Bussell and Justin Sbresni. The show's executive producers include Jon Plowman and Michele Buck.
The Robinsons revolves around Ed Robinson's relationship with his family, including his bickering parents (Anna Massey and Richard Johnson), his successful older brother George (Hugh Bonneville) and his perfectionist sister Vicky (Abigail Cruttenden). After he is fired from his long-term job, Ed moves in with his aunt and tries to find both a career that he prefers to the reinsurance business and a steady girlfriend. His family's efforts to meddle in his affairs further complicate his life.
